OBJECTIVE: to analyze the inclusion of the mental health of rural workers in the construction of the agenda and implementation of the main public health policies of the national territory. METHOD: a cross-sectional and interdisciplinary research study that conducts bibliographic and documentary survey, investigating the "place" of rural workers' mental health in the construction of the National Mental Health Policy, the National Workers' Health Policy and the National Integral Health Policy of the Rural, Forest and Waters Populations. RESULTS: although advances have been made in the national context of mental health and workers' health, the inclusion of the rural environment is still timid and the consideration of the rural workers' distress is practically null. CONCLUSION: the rural worker is little mentioned in the main national policies and without an integrative concept, being referenced in a fragmented, decontextualized and excluding manner in the initial process of definition and construction of the main public health policies.
